EcoClear Label (incl greenhouse) 2008 GENERAL INFORMATION
ECOCLEAR FAST ACTING WEED AND GRASS KILLER is a postemergent, foliar active, vegetation management product formulated to contain organic acids that are components of vinegar and lemon juice. It is non-selective to green foliage and non- residual in soil. ECOCLEAR FAST ACTING WEED AND GRASS KILLER
is recommended for the control of herbaceous broadleaf and grassy weeds on non-crop land areas, such as: sidewalks, driveways and patios; railroad rights-of-way, power stations, and industrial sites; around farm buildings, storage areas, tank farms, in and aroundgreenhouses, plant nurseries and golf courses; and in fencerows and vacant lots.
ECOCLEAR FAST ACTING WEED AND GRASS KILLER is fast acting. Foliar contact results in rapid burndown of annual weeds and suppression (top growth
reduction) of herbaceous perennial weeds. Retreatment is required for complete control of established perennial weeds.

CAUTION. Avoid contact on desirable plants. Overspray or drift will injure contacted vegetation.
This product may be toxic to aquatic organisms. Do not apply or allow runoff to reach lakes, streams and ponds. Do not contaminate water by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes. A buffer zone of at least 15 meters should be established between areas to be sprayed and aquatic environments.
Avoid application to reactive metals such as aluminum, tin, iron, or items such as fencing or lawn furniture in order to prevent staining, mottling, or otherwise interfering with finished metal surfaces.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Best results are achieved from spring and early summer applications to actively growing young weeds. Degree of control depends on several factors, including size and stage at application. Small annual weeds may be completely controlled with a single
application. Control of larger, more established weeds, not completely desiccated with one application may be short-term and require retreatment. Weeds that are mature, dormant or hardened due to moisture stress tend to be more tolerant to herbicide treatment. Complete coverage of undesirable vegetation is necessary to achieve control. Only contacted vegetation will be affected. Seedling perennial weeds may be controlled with a single application; however, repeat application is required for control of regrowth of established perennial weeds. Rainfall within 1 hour of application will reduce degree of control. DO NOT re-enter the treated area for 12 hours or until the residues have dried.
FOR EARLY SEASON ANNUAL WEED CONTROL, when weeds are small (3
to 5 leaf) and actively growing; mix a spray solution consisting of 1 L of product for each 3L of water. Ensure adequate mixing. Spray unwanted vegetation to point of wetness.
SPOT TREATMENT APPLICATION: Use a single nozzle or hand-gun applicator to direct the spray and thoroughly wet undesirable foliage. BROADCAST APPLICATION:
For broadcast application use a solution volume of 750 to 1000L per hectare. Thorough coverage is necessary to achieve desirable control. For dense populations and heavy foliage use the higher spray volume to ensure adequate coverage. Apply with flat fan nozzles and sufficient pressure to achieve required coverage.
FOR CONTROL OF LARGER ANNUAL WEEDS AND TOP GROWTH
REDUCTION (SUPPRESSION) OF PERENNIAL WEED GROWTH. Mix a spray solution consisting of 1 L of product for each 2.25L of water. Use an application system, solution volume and adequate spray pressure to ensure complete coverage of unwanted vegetation. Best results with larger weeds will be achieved by spot treatment. For
broadcast application use a solution volume of 750 to 1250 L/ha. Retreatment is required for regrowth of perennial weeds .
FOR CONTROL OF WEEDS IN GREENHOUSES: To control weeds in non-crop areas of the greenhouse such as under planting benches, in walkways, and in beds after harvest, prepare a spray solution consisting of 1 L of product for each 3L of water. Ensure
adequate mixing. Spray weeds to the point of wetness using a medium droplet size to minimize drift. Complete coverage of the weeds is necessary to achieve control. Best results will be achieved if the weeds are actively growing. Avoid contact of the spray solution onto desirable vegetation.
PRECAUTIONS: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wash immediately after use. Overspray or drift will injure contacted foliage. Avoid all contact to desirable plants. Wear safety goggles or face shield, gloves, long-sleeved shirt, pants, socks, and shoes during mixing/loading and application with

hand held equipment, as well as during clean-up and maintenance of equipment.
A well ventilated area is required for task-related duties.
